The province of Ontario recognizes craft brewers by making OCB Week official!

Members of the Legislative Assembly of the Province of Ontario, including Arthur Potts MPP, Beaches- East York passed a private bill last March to proclaim the week commencing the second Sunday in June, as Ontario Craft Beer Week.

Over the past decade, and with over 70 craft breweries in Ontario, the craft beer industry has grown in popularity, adding a generous boost to and becoming a major player in Ontario’s alcohol beverage industry. This Act was an instrumental way for the province to honour its long-standing partnership with and support of the Ontario Craft Brewers Association and to showcase and celebrate our province’s thriving, locally-based craft beer industry.
